IMPROVEMENT IN CULINARY IMPLEMENTS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 167,081, dated August 24, 1875; application filed November 27, 1874.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JERRY EBBERT, of Martins Ferry, in Belmont county, and State of Ohio, have invented a Culinary Implement, of which the following is a specification:

My invention relates to a biscuit-cutter,a cake-cutter, a nutmeg-grater, a pie-crimper, a tea-strainer, an egg-dipper, and an applecorer combined in one implement; and consists in an open-ended hollow cylinder of suitable dimensions, with one end plain and the other crimped. The plain endforms the biscuit cutter, and the irregular end the cakecutter and pie-crimper. The hollow of the cylinder is divided into two parts by a partition with numerous small apertures therein, the edges of the apertures on one side of the partition being rasp-like or jagged, and on the 0th r .rnooth. This partition, so made, forms the grater, and with its surrounding parts also the strainer and dipper. To the outside of this cylinder is attached a tubular handle, which forms the apple-corer. i

pie-crimping end; D, the grater and strainer;

E, the dipper part, and F the handle or applecorer.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

As a new article of manufacture the culinary'implement herein described, consisting of the hollow cylinder A, with smooth-cutting edge B, corrugated cutting and crimping edge 0, perforated diaphragm D, and hollow handle F, substantially as specified.

JERRY EBBERT.
